He can't play any role, he has no qualities that make him good at anything particularly, he's poor on the ball, he can't tackle or track a man well and he's not even that good in the air! He's just....average in every sense.

World Cup had plenty of awful players.
 
It was 11, not 15, he scored most of them while playing as a striker, not from midfield, he scored a large portion of them from corners(making where he plays for the other 89 minutes pretty much pointless) and 8 of the 11 were against Villa, Reading, Fulham, Swansea and Sunderland. He took a butload of shots, 90 to be exact, and deserved about 14 red cards in the season, a season plagued by elbows, iirc an actual punch and a headbutt or two that he got away with, maybe all of them.

he actually is crap, and the utterly woeful argument of "you don't play for your country if you aren't any good" can be countered by example after example of awful players who are constantly awful and fail at every club.

Felipe Melo was rubbish, literally awful every single time I saw him. He got a move to one club in italy and was voted worst player/worst buy of the season. He played plenty for Brazil and was woeful up to and then including the game in which he scored an own goal and got a hilariously stupid red card. Heskey is another name that comes to mind, etc, etc.

15mil for Fellaini is more than Everton should have gotten for him(or paid for him for that matter) in the first place. Utd will do very well to get that much out of him.

AS for Arsenal getting him... lol, being big isn't a skill. Having a team working to the same goal is incredibly important, square peg in a round hole is useless. He doesn't play in the Arsenal(or Utd) way and wouldn't work in the slightest. When you want to put an elbowing battering ram upfront, he's fine, when you want someone to play pass and move football, he's useless.

Yeah but you think Kroos is chod and Bendter is awesome. I can't be arsed talking football with you because you extremely naive when it comes to whats actually possible on the pitch. It's either World class like Ronaldo or crap. There is no in between with you..

As for the goals though, 11 was it? I didn't look it up. I'm guessing you did though, top marks for googling skills. Yea..you use your strengths, if he scored 10 goals from 25 yards, you still wouldn't be happy, you'd say he should be scoring with head lol it's the nature of you DM.

Edit, 12 in 36 actually. Great return from a box to box player

That's because he's better when you allow him to run about. He has a good touch for a big guy and his physicality is not to be sniffed at. This is what makes me think LVG is going to be so naive this year in the PL. If Arsenal could sign him for 15 mil, Wenger should jump at the chance. Arsenal have really lacked someone big like him in the middle, suppose Diaby is back though...

heh :p

I wouldn't be so sure. LvG supposedly favours youth. He seems to have been pretty consistent on this

When a side already has experience......No really experienced defenders apart from one centre half (Evans) and one perma-injury (Rafael)

Only one experienced CM, who is out for three months

hmmmm
 
Frontpage of Chile's main sports paper today:

"Verbal agreement reached with Man Utd"

From what I can tell, for a change, they aren't quoting the Italian press, but they might be horribly unreliable, who knows.

Braced for crushing disappointment, anyway. :cool: :(
 
Depends what LvG expects of him. If he is going to be in the wing back position then he needs to be going up and down the wing a lot which is very taxing. I would imagine he is fitter than some of our players but perhaps not quite enough for the role he will have.
 
The season hasn't even started yet and I already love Van Gaal. I would imagine Shaw had a pretty big head about moving to United (perhaps not outwardly), but this will hopefully get him knuckling down and remind him he's going to have to work his socks off.

I think this is ultimately the reason, not so sure going so public about it is a good thing mind, but ye, back to transfer news!
